A decent dark chocolate is at least 85% cacao and contains 5 grams of sugar or less.

I can't stomach milk chocolate, nasty stuff. Always want dark chocolates. A lot of stuff made in the U.S.A. has artificial ingredients that simply taste awful. Worst was when they stopped using cane sugar and substituted corn sucrose and artificial sweeteners. The foreign stuff is still made the old fashioned way.

That decision to use fructose over natural cane sugar ruined many a confection and soda. You can thank the U.S. sugar industry and a tariff to protect them for a lot of that ruinous change.
